Well, there are a great many people with moderating privileges on this site :) Really though a job posting in the wrong area is off-topic enough to get moderated down, while one in a jobs section can get moderated up if the person is detailed (o'Reilly posts a job offering, gets moderated up to 30 :) )

Certainly the system isn't perfect, but it should work well enough. "Controlled chaos".

When putting a smiley right before a closing parenthesis, do you:

Use two parentheses: (Like this: :) )
Use one parenthesis: (Like this: :)
Reverse direction of the smiley: (Like this: (: )
Use angle/square brackets instead of parentheses
Use C-style commenting to set the smiley off from the closing parenthesis
Make the smiley a dunce: (:>
I disapprove of emoticons
